New research says that men who have 2 drinks per day, 3 or more days per week lower their risk of heart attack. In a few minutes, I'm off to a heat-healthy coffee break!!!
The science for women is a bit more ambiguous- somethng like a half drink a day. SInce women are so much less likely to suffer a heart attack than men, the increased risk of brest cancer may outweigh the reduced risk in heart disease.
